| > So whoever drinks beer, eats pizza or plays ping pong is a "noisy idiot"? If you want to interpret it that way, fine. I really don't care. You interfere with my work and try to shove an addictive, brain-freezing drug on me (no matter how many times I tell you my family history says stay the fuck away). Yes, you're noisy idiots. If you like, I can come up with different, even more insulting descriptions that I think fit even better. > Yes, break rooms should have proper acoustical isolation, or be adequately placed apart. They don't. Welcome to the real world. > Beyond that, noise cancelling headphones does wonders! I shouldn't have to isolate myself from an environment intended for doing work in order to do work. It's an office. If it's not for getting work done, why am I in it? Why can't I just work from home? Why is the business spending money on it in the first place? Get rid of it and use the savings to pay me more. |
